The students should run an engineering background search, prior to the beginning of the project. In this study, the team members should review all the techniques they may potentially use for the ends of their projects. Also the originality of the endeavor and similarities between the selected project and other works should be discussed. | The students should run an engineering background search, prior to the beginning of the project.

AT this stage, the students should be ready to present in class, a summary of the background study they ran on the chosen topic. The goal of this writing down this papers-review and presenting it, is to demonstrate the students comprehension of the underlying concepts and that allows them to improve the founding of their proposal. The main factors influencing the mark, dedicated to this part of project, are; first, the improvements achieved in the description of the right techniques involved in the project and second, the relevance of the team's answers to the audience' | AT this stage, the students should be ready to present in class, a summary of the background study they ran on the chosen topic.
